Help - Bionic took a swim - need to recover pics

So my 2 year old sent my Bionic swimming in the toilet. Luckily I have insurance so it's getting replaced. However, the screen on the soaked Bionic is dead and I want to get my pics off it (apparently they were stored in internal memory even though I had it set to sd?!?!?) I can get the phone powered on no prob. But when I connect it via USB, the computer doesn't see it. I'm guessing that's because it's set in charge only mode not mass storage. Anybody know a way around this? I just want to get my pics....thanks in advance...

Wait until your new phone arrives and use the new phone as a "map". Just lay the phones side-by-side and you should be able to use the new phone to see where to touch the screen on the old phone. Does the broken phone ring when you call it? Hopefully the screen is the only thing not working.

If the screen's not working I doubt that the digitizer would be responding... Possible yes but probably not probable...

@Shadez I totally forgot about mirroring!

Try hdmi like shadez said, it should work! Oh, snap, except I'm not sure if your digitizer is working ... Is still worth a try!
